    Default Macbook Wireless?

    Do any service providers offer products that work with Macbooks? I've heard Tata Indicom might but I'm a bit skeptical about it...

    It depends on type of modem you are using. If your modem supports wireless, you can connect to internet through Airport on your MacBook.

    Even if you don't have wireless router, you can go and buy Apple Airport Express Base station and connect the Ethernet wire from your modem to Base station and enjoy wireless internet.

    Wireless protocol is the same everywhere - MacBooks and other Mac products work on the same Wireless A/B/G protocol. Any wireless enabled Mac will work with any wireless router, hotspot, Wimax, etc.

    I was talking about using something like Tata Indicom's Plug2Surf thing... but I guess I might just wait until I get a proper flat and get a landline with a wireless router.

    This Plug2Surf device is a USB dongle, isn't it? If it can plug into the Mac, I think it should work. But you can visit the website and check specs. Sometimes they mention Windows only or Windows+Mac.

    Plug2Surf is not supported on Mac yet. You will only get window's drivers. You can confirm with sales rep' .
